Clues

  • "Is an other-feeder they require the consumption of something else to feed themselves" (11)
  • "Species that are specific to one location" - This will usually be an island as they are isolated from other locations (7, 7)
  • "The degradation of a dead organism into the ground" (13)
  • "The different levels that go from producers up to consumer" (7, 6)
  • "The flow of energy from one store to another" (6, 4)
  • "The number of different ecosystems that can be found within a certain geographical area" (9, 9)
  • "The process through which plants use light and carbon dioxide to produce oxygen" (14)
  • "The range of genes that can be found within species" - For example the Cheetah is generically weak as they have very little diversity due to a disease. (7, 9)
  • "The variety of genes, species and ecosystems that can be found within an area" (12)
  • "The variety of living organisms, such as plants and animals, that are present within an ecosystem" (7, 9)

5 is wrong, it is biotic not Abiotic. Abiotic is for physical like Rocks or Water, Biotic is for living organisms.
